In November 2024, Germany welcomed an 18-member delegation of leading decision-makers in the healthcare sector from Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan. These selected experts, including buyers, distributors and representatives of small to medium-sized hospitals, took part in the renowned ‘Partnering in Business with Germany’ programme, which is supported by the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (BMWK).
The main objectives of the trip were to strengthen cooperation between German companies and key healthcare organisations from Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan, explore business opportunities and promote technological innovation in the healthcare sector. The delegation showed great interest in hospital equipment, laboratory technologies and other healthcare innovations.
The group included influential buyers, distributors and high-level representatives of small and medium-sized hospitals who were actively seeking strategic partnerships with German companies. Pre-arranged meetings and technical discussions enabled valuable business contacts to be made and long-term collaborations to be initiated.
From 4 to 15 November 2024, Cologne was the central location for the delegation trip. Numerous networking events, presentations and personal business meetings took place there. The participants benefited from a comprehensive introduction to the German healthcare industry as well as customised company visits that provided practical insights into modern technologies and business models.
The delegation trip was a complete success. Numerous business agreements were initiated and the participants were extremely satisfied with the contacts they made and the insights they gained into the German healthcare market. The event emphasised the importance of international cooperation and Germany’s central role as a partner for healthcare innovation.
With their visit to Germany, the healthcare delegation from Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan laid an important foundation for future partnerships and will undoubtedly have a positive and lasting effect on international cooperation in the healthcare sector.
